:wink:
Or to save removing everything unless it is nessassary you could just rig up a sheet as has been done here:[frame]Image[/frame]

Sheet looks good!!!

I have no headlining.

That's the next major headache to fix....

The sheet looks OK for grinding sparks, a bit flammable to be around welding though.
Any weld that gets on your clothes tends to get put out fast as it hurts :o if any got on the sheet it might smoulder away after the welding was finished for the day :(

Yes, it really does hurt! Got fed up with burn holes in my cloths (and me) - so, I invested in a leather apron (kinky), good investment - less than a tenner! :lol:
That's strange R2, the damage doesn't look so bad from here!

Good point Marky. FWIW, I have a couple of welding blankets that I use.
